It's empty in the city sky
And time kinda blurs
Heavy is the light that pulls
The night down to earth
We're gone beyond the peak
A little fever cleared the streets
But on we turn
I love the way you crumble
Love the weeds in your cracks
I'll wait for you come sundown
Where the trees meet the tracks
And slowly we'll be gone
Till the builders come along
And take you back
There's words I need to hear
But they're never said
There's a place I need to go
But it's not there
Better take our time, keep our loving on the line
Till it comes around
And you'll see me soon with a different tune
In another light
See you moonstruck in black lipstick
My sweet little clown
Holding up your funhouse mirror
Dressing me down
I guess you must be right
About a thing or two I hide
With all my doubt
There's a song I need to hear
That they don't sing these days
There's a ladder to the future
With no rungs
But we'll take our time, keep our loving on the line
As it goes around
While we write our names in the place between
The daylight and the dark
Yeah we'll take our time and keep our loving on the line
Till it comes around
And you'll see me soon with a different tune
In another light
